Screens Provided by the ProTool Example Projects The example ProTool projects contain WinAC MP functions, ActiveX controls, and two screens with WinAC MP components for process control and monitoring.

Both example screens contain function keys or touch buttons on the left for WinAC MP operations. The chapter “Controlling Your Process with WinAC MP” describes how to use the example screens. The chapter “Customizing WinAC MP for Your Application” lists the available WinAC MP functions and how to use them in ProTool CS to create your own process screens, or modify the example screens.

The first example screen is the WinAC_MP_Panel screen:

Figure: WinAC_MP_Panel Screen

The WinAC_MP_Panel screen uses a combination of ActiveX controls and screen objects with WinAC MP functions attached:

The WinAC MP ActiveX control provides a control panel that serves as your interface to the WinAC MP controller. The control panel provides everything you need to monitor and operate the WinAC MP controller: all the status indicators, plus mode buttons that allow you to change the operating mode of the WinAC MP controller.

The Cycle Time area and the Min Sleep Time field are screen objects with WinAC MP functionality. When the WinAC MP controller is running, you can watch the last cycle time, average cycle time, maximum cycle time, and minimum cycle time update in the Cycle Time area. The Cycle Time screen objects are read-only. You can set the minimum sleep time value (ms) in the Min Sleep Time field, which is a read/write field, to tune the scan cycle.

The Histogram ActiveX control provides visual information about cycle time (when the WinAC MP controller is running) in the form of a histogram.

Product Overview

The second example screen is the WinAC_MP_Function screen:

Figure: WinAC_MP_Function Screen

This screen uses screen objects such as buttons and bitmaps, rather than the WinAC MP ActiveX control, to provide a control panel interface for the WinAC MP controller.

Product Overview

6

Compatibility WinAC MP V3.1 is compatible with WinAC Basis V4.0. STEP 7 programs developed for WinAC MP can be used without change in WinAC Basis and in S7-300/400 controllers. In the hardware configuration, however, note that WinAC Basis can support up to four submodules, but WinAC MP has only one.

ProTool projects developed for WinAC MP 3.0 can be used without change in WinAC MP 3.1.

What’s New? If you have previously used WinAC MP, these features have been added since the last release:

• Support of the 15” version of the MP370 Touch panel

• Improved handling of retentive data

• WinAC MP functions for archive and restore

• Configurable automatic start after power on

• Peer-to-peer communication

• Ability to reset the cycle time histogram data

• Ability to get the WinAC MP version number

• Fixed WinAC MP controller priority: always higher than ProTool on the multi panel; not tunable by user

For more information on these features, see the related topics in the chapter “Controlling Your Process with WinAC MP” (p. 33) or in the summary of “WinAC MP Functions” (p.47).

Figure: Download WinAC MP

After you complete these tasks, you can download your hardware configuration and control program from STEP 7 to the WinAC MP controller on the multi panel.

Note If you must perform an OS Update to reinstall ProTool on the multi panel, or to install a service pack, you replace all existing software and licenses installed on the multi panel. If you have an authorization installed on the multi panel, remove it according to the directions in “Removing an Authorization” (p.20) before you update the operating system. After the update, you must retransfer all of the WinAC MP components from the configuration computer and authorization diskette to the multi panel, as described in this chapter.


8

Setting Parameters for Communications WinAC MP supports the following interfaces for communications between the configuration computer and the multi panel:Error! Bookmark not defined.

• Ethernet

• Serial

• MPI/PROFIBUS

• USB

You must set parameters in ProSave and ProTool on the configuration computer and also in the Control Panel utilities of the multi panel for the devices to communicate successfully. You use ProSave to download the WinAC MP runtime files to the multi panel, so you must configure communications parameters in both ProSave and the multi panel. You use ProTool to download a project with user interface screens, so you must configure communications parameters in both ProTool and the multi panel. ProSave and ProTool do not have to use the same communications protocol, but if they differ, you have to reconfigure your multi panel settings to match the tool you are using.

Using the Remote Control Option The Remote Control option allows you to download from the configuration computer without having to set the multi panel to Transfer mode. Remote Control is especially useful when the configuration computer and the multi panel are not physically close to each other.

Note To use the Remote Control option, ProTool must be running on the multi panel. The multi panel cannot automatically go to remote transfer mode when ProTool is not running.

If ProTool is running on the multi panel and you have enabled Remote Control, the multi panel closes the ProTool runtime and begins accepting transferred files when you initiate a download from the configuration computer. A Remote Control download while WinAC MP is controlling the process can interfere with process activities.

Warning If you select the Remote Control transfer option, it is possible for a user to download from the configuration computer to the multi panel while the controller is running.

If the controller is connected to field equipment, interrupting its operation could cause death or serious injury to personnel and/or damage to equipment.

Ensure that only qualified personnel have access to the configuration computer. Ensure that your equipment is in a safe state before proceeding with a download. Always install a physical emergency stop circuit for your machine or process.

To enable Remote Control on the multi panel, follow these steps:

1. From the Control Panel on the multi panel, open the Transfer utility.

2. If you are using serial communication between ProTool and the multi panel, select the “Enable Channel” and “Remote Control” checkboxes for Channel 1 (Serial).

3. If you are using MPI/PROFIBUS, Ethernet, or USB communication between ProTool and the multi panel, select the “Enable Channel” and “Remote Control” checkboxes for Channel 2.


9

Connecting the Configuration Computer to the Multi Panel You must use a direct connection for Serial, MPI/PROFIBUS, or USB communications. For Ethernet communication, you can use either a direct connection or a networked connection. To configure the multi panel to use a direct connection, follow these steps:

1. From the Control Panel on the multi panel, open the Communications utility and select the PC Connection tab.

2. Select the “Enable direct connections to the desktop computer” checkbox.

Establishing Ethernet Communication To set up a direct Ethernet connection, connect a crossover cable between the multi panel and configuration computer.

6. Select the Options tab and click the Device Status button with the multi panel in Transfer mode. The communication connection is valid if you do not see an error message.

Note If you have a communication problem, check that the multi panel is in Transfer mode, check your physical cable connections, and check that your settings in ProSave and on the multi panel are correct for your connection, as described in “Setting Parameters for Communications” (p.8).

7. From the Options tab, click WinAC MP V3.1 in the Available Options (left pane) to select it, then click the button to add it to the installed options of the multi panel (right pane).

If an earlier version of WinAC MP has already been installed, you are warned that this option is already installed. You must use the button to remove it from the Installed Options pane first. Then you can select WinAC MP from the Available Options and add (reinstall) it to the multi panel.

ProSave begins downloading the WinAC MP controller software to the multi panel. While the transfer is in progress, the configuration computer displays progress on the transfer. On the multi panel, the Transfer dialog updates with messages containing progress on the files that the multi panel is receiving, uncompressing and writing to the flash file system. At the end of the transfer, a message confirms the success of the transfer.

Figure: Transferring the WinAC MP Controller to the Multi Panel

8. When the transfer completes, shut down and restart the multi panel.

The WinAC MP controller is now installed on the multi panel. You do not have a user interface to the controller until you download a ProTool project with WinAC MP screens.

Leave ProSave open to download WinAC MP authorization to the MP370.


15

Downloading Authorization for WinAC MP You use ProSave to transfer WinAC MP authorization from an authorization diskette inserted in the drive of your configuration computer to the multi panel. If ProSave is not already open, click SIMATIC > ProSave > ProSave from the Windows Start menu.

To transfer the authorization, select Transfer from the Loader dialog on the multi panel. The multi panel opens a communications connection and displays a "Connecting to host" message.

Notice You must ensure that the WinAC MP controller is shut down when you use ProSave to download files.

If you attempt to perform downloads from ProSave while the WinAC MP controller is running, the controller process interferes with the download process. The controller process takes precedence and the other operation fails. You may not receive any notification that the process has failed.

Always shut down the WinAC MP controller before you download files from ProSave.

To transfer WinAC MP authorization to the multi panel using ProSave, follow these steps:

1. Click the Authorize tab in ProSave.

2. Select the drive letter for the drive where you have inserted the authorization diskette. The authorization is displayed in the Selection pane. The License counter should display a value of 001 for the WinAC MP authorization, indicating that the license is present on the diskette. (You can use the Device Status button to read the multi panel in order to see whether an authorization has already been installed.)

3. To transfer the authorization from the diskette to the multi panel, select the product authorization in the Selection pane and use the button to add it to the Installed Options.

After the authorization transfer completes, you can exit ProSave.

Caution Do not dispose of your authorization diskette! If you later want to reload the multi panel image, or perform a backup restore, you must first remove the authorization for WinAC MP from the multi panel (that is, transfer it back onto the diskette). The authorization can only be transferred back onto the original authorization diskette, as described in “Removing Authorization for WinAC MP from the Multi Panel” (p. 20).

Authorization for WinAC MP is not backed up when you back up the flash memory of the multi panel, nor is it a part of the image on the multi panel. Consequently, if you do not uninstall the existing authorization (restore it from the multi panel to the diskette) before loading a new image or restoring from backup to the multi panel, the authorization information is erased during the load operation, effectively causing you to lose the authorization.

If you lose an authorization, you must contact Siemens technical support for assistance. See the topic “Contacting Customer Support” (p. iv) for contact information.

Downloading an Example Project

To download an example project to the multi panel, click the Download button . ProTool CS and the multi panel display progress indicators while the download is in progress. ProTool CS displays a success message following a successful download.

If there are communication difficulties, try these troubleshooting tips:

Make sure that power is on to the multi panel and the multi panel is in Transfer mode.

Check that the cable is connected properly to the configuration computer and to the multi panel.

Review the topic “Setting Parameters for Communications” (p.8) to ensure that you have configured the connection properly.

After a successful download, the multi panel displays a screen from the example project. The default is the WinAC_MP_Panel screen:


The chapter “Controlling Your Process with WinAC MP” describes how to use the example ProTool project in more detail.

To use the example ProTool project for process monitoring and control, you must download a STEP 7 control program to WinAC MP, as described in the chapter “Developing and Downloading a STEP 7 Project for WinAC MP”.


18

Getting Started with WinAC MP on the Multi Panel After you transfer the runtime files, authorization and a WinAC MP example ProTool project, you can view and experiment with the user interface of the controller.

Remember that the controller does not actually contain any program logic until after you download a STEP 7 control program.

Starting the ProTool Project on the Multi Panel It is easy to start your ProTool project on the multi panel:

1. Ensure that the multi panel is powered on.

2. From the Loader dialog on the multi panel, click the Start button. ProTool opens and displays your project.

Starting the WinAC MP Controller The type of multi panel you have determines how you start the controller:

Keyboard units: press the S3 key to start the controller.

Touch panel units: touch "Start WinAC MP" to start the controller.

Shutting Down the WinAC MP Controller The type of multi panel you have determines how you shut down the controller:

Keyboard units: press the S4 key to shut down the controller.

Touch panel units: touch "Shutdown WinAC MP" to shut down the controller.

Exiting the ProTool Project The type of multi panel you have determines how you exit the project:

Keyboard units: press the S2 key to exit ProTool.

Touch panel units: touch "Exit ProTool" to exit ProTool.

The Difference Between Shutting Down WinAC MP and Exiting ProTool Exiting ProTool has no effect on the operation of the WinAC MP controller. When you exit ProTool, you close the project that provides the interface to the WinAC MP controller. You cannot see a representation of the controller. However, the controller can run even if the ProTool project is closed.

When you start the WinAC MP controller, the power LED on the control panel representation in the example ProTool project turns green, and it stays green until you issue the "Shutdown WinAC MP" (S4) command. You can exit and restart ProTool on the multi panel and the power LED will remain green.

To shut down the controller, press the S4 key or the touch button for the "Shutdown WinAC MP" command, which is entirely separate from the "Exit ProTool" command.


19

Restrictions when the Controller Is Running When the controller is running, the multi panel cannot connect to other PLCs. The WinAC MP controller is configured to use the IP address of the multi panel. Remember that the controller can be running whether or not ProTool is running on the multi panel.

The following restrictions apply when the controller is running:

Do not attempt to perform ProSave operations between the configuration computer and the multi panel.

Do not use utilities from the Control Panel of the multi panel. The WinAC MP controller has priority over these other operations on the multi panel. Such operations, if attempted, may fail without notice.

Notice Ensure that the WinAC MP controller is shut down when you use ProSave to download files or when you use utilities in the Control Panel of the multi panel.

If you attempt to perform downloads from ProSave or use utilities in the Control Panel while the WinAC MP controller is running, the controller process interferes with the download and/or Control Panel processes. The controller process takes precedence and the other operations can fail. You may not receive any notification that the process has failed.

Always shut down the WinAC MP controller before you perform a download from ProSave or use a utility in the Control Panel of the multi panel.

Do not attempt to download a project from ProTool CS on the configuration computer to the multi panel when the controller is in RUN or RUN-P mode.

Warning Downloading a ProTool CS configuration to the multi panel while the WinAC MP controller is in RUN or RUN-P mode interrupts the execution of the process.

If process equipment is not in a safe state, interrupting the execution of the process could result in death or serious injury to personnel, and/or damage to equipment.

Shut down the WinAC MP controller or set it to STOP mode prior to downloading any ProTool CS configuration. Ensure that your equipment is in a safe state. Always install a physical emergency stop circuit for your machine or process.

You can download the WinAC MP example STEP 7 project to WinAC MP on the multi panel, or you can develop your own STEP 7 project. This chapter describes tasks for working with either a new project or one of the example projects.

Configuring the Multi Panel Communication Settings You can use either MPI/PROFIBUS or Ethernet communications between STEP 7 on the configuration computer and the multi panel. You cannot use Serial or USB communications. If you change your settings, cycle power on the multi panel for the changes to take effect. Refer to the sections “Ethernet Communication Parameters” or “MPI/PROFIBUS Communication Parameters” for complete instructions.

Creating and Configuring a STEP 7 Project For a new STEP 7 project, you must perform the following tasks:

Create a project and a SIMATIC PC station with the SIMATIC Manager.

Create the control program logic.

To use the WinAC MP controller as a master on a PROFIBUS-DP network, you must perform the following tasks:

Use the HW Config editor to configure the WinAC MP controller and configure the distributed I/O, or to modify the existing configuration of an example project.

Edit the PG/PC interface in STEP 7 so that you can use an MPI/PROFIBUS or an Ethernet connection to download the hardware configuration and user program to the multi panel.

STEP 7 Connection Options You can use either an MPI/PROFIBUS connection or an Ethernet connection to communicate from STEP 7 on the configuration computer to the WinAC MP controller on the multi panel.

MPI/PROFIBUS:

The factory default setting of the MPI/PROFIBUS interface of the multi panel is MPI with a transmission rate of 187.5 Kbps. The first download from the configuration computer must use an MPI interface as the PG/PC interface parameter assignment.

When you configure the WinAC MP controller as a PROFIBUS-DP master in the Hardware Configuration utility of STEP 7, and download this configuration, STEP 7 changes the MPI/PROFIBUS interface on the multi panel from MPI to PROFIBUS-DP communication. For subsequent downloads to the multi panel using PROFIBUS, you must change the PG/PC interface settings on the configuration computer from MPI to PROFIBUS, as described in the topic “Changing the PG/PC Interface from MPI to PROFIBUS-DP” (p. 30).

Ethernet:

If you configure the PG/PC interface on the configuration computer to use a TCP/IP connection to download the PROFIBUS-DP master configuration to the multi panel, you do not need to change your PG/PC interface settings to perform subsequent downloads from STEP 7. Your STEP 7 connection uses the Ethernet port of the multi panel, and is unaffected by the configuration of the MPI/PROFIBUS interface.

Note In order to configure STEP 7 to use an Industrial Ethernet connection to the multi panel, you must have the SIMATIC NET networking software installed on your configuration computer. No networking software is needed on the multi panel.


25

Configuring the SIMATIC PC Station and the PROFIBUS-DP Network When you install WinAC MP, the setup process installs a STEP 7 example project for WinAC MP on your configuration computer. The WinAC MP example project is located with the STEP 7 example projects in the STEP 7 installation directory at …\Step7\EXAMPLES\ZEN08_01. If you choose to use the example project, open it and proceed to the section entitled “Defining I/O Communication Settings and Network Properties” (p. 27).

Configuring a SIMATIC PC Station for a new STEP 7 Project To create a new project for the WinAC MP controller, follow these steps:

1. From the SIMATIC Manager, select File > New and enter a project name such as MyNewProject.

2. With your project selected, use the menu command Insert > Station > SIMATIC PC Station to create a SIMATIC PC station.

Figure: Inserting a PC Station

3. In the left pane of the SIMATIC Manager, double-click the newly created station. This causes the Configuration icon to appear in the right pane. Double-click the Configuration icon to open the HW Config editor.

Figure: Opening the SIMATIC PC Station

4. If the HW Catalog is not already open, click the icon to open it.

Figure: Hardware Configuration

5. From the HW Catalog, navigate to SIMATIC PC Station\Controller\WinLC MP. Open the folder containing the order number and drag the V3.1 controller to slot 2. The Properties – PROFIBUS interface DP dialog appears.

You have now configured the SIMATIC PC Station with WinLC MP in your STEP 7 project. The next step is the definition of the communication settings and network properties.


27

Defining I/O Communication Settings and Network Properties For WinAC MP to communicate to a network of distributed I/O, you must configure a PROFIBUS/DP subnet.To configure the SIMATIC PC station as a DP master that can be downloaded to the WinAC MP controller on the multi panel, follow these steps:

1. From the Parameters tab of the Properties – PROFIBUS interface DP dialog, enter the node address for the WinAC MP controller on the multi panel. The default address for the DP master is 2. Each node on the network must have a unique node address between 0 and 125.

Note STEP 7 displayed the Properties – PROFIBUS interface DP dialog when you dragged the V3.1 controller to slot 2, as described in the preceding section. If this dialog is not open, double-click DP in the IF1 slot for WinLC MP in the Hardware Config utility. Then click the Properties button on the Properties – DP dialog.

2. Click the New button to open the Properties – New subnet PROFIBUS dialog. From the General tab, you can assign a name for the network, or you can use the default name.

3. Select the Network Settings tab. Examine the following settings and make changes if necessary:

Highest PROFIBUS Address: Can be reduced to improve polling speed, if you are certain you will never exceed a certain number of stations.

Transmission Rate: Default is 1.5 Mbps. Adjustable up to 12 Mbps depending on the speed requirement of the application.

Profile: Default is DP.

For more information about PROFIBUS-DP communications and how to set up PROFIBUS networks, refer to the SIMATIC NET PROFIBUS User Manual.

4. Click the OK button to confirm the name and any changes to the network settings that you have configured for the PROFIBUS subnet and close the Properties – New subnet PROFIBUS dialog.

5. Click the OK button to confirm the node address that you have configured for the SIMATIC PC station and close the Properties – PROFIBUS interface DP dialog.


28

Configuring an Ethernet Connection between STEP 7 and the Multi Panel If you are using an Ethernet (TCP/IP) connection, you must perform additional tasks from the HW Config utility. For TCP/IP communication between STEP 7 and the multi panel using a static IP address, follow these steps:

1. Select an IE General from the CP Industrial Ethernet folder of SIMATIC PC Station in the Hardware Catalog and drop it in any slot of the SIMATIC PC Station rack. The Properties - Ethernet Interface IE General dialog opens.

2. In the IP Address field, enter the IP address of the multi panel. You can access Network Configuration from the Control Panel on the multi panel to find the IP address.

3. For the subnet, select an Ethernet subnet. If one does not exist, click New. The Properties – New subnet Industrial Ethernet dialog opens. Click OK and a new Ethernet subnet is created for you.

4. Click the OK button to complete the configuration of the Ethernet interface.

For more information about Ethernet communications and setting up Ethernet networks, refer to the SIMATIC NET Ethernet User Manual.

Before you close the HW Config editor, you can configure additional PROFIBUS nodes (slaves) according to your application requirements.

When finished, click the save and compile icon to save and compile the configuration.


29

Downloading the Configuration To download the hardware configuration to the WinAC MP controller on the multi panel, you must first set the PG/PC interface on the configuration computer to the type of connection, MPI/PROFIBUS or Ethernet (TCP/IP), that you are using between the configuration computer and the multi panel.

Note If you use an MPI/PROFIBUS connection, you must set the PG/PC interface to MPI with a transmission rate of 187.5 Kbps for the first download to match the default settings of the mulit panel. You must then change it to a PROFIBUS-DP connection after downloading the DP master hardware configuration, as described in “Changing the PG/PC Interface from MPI to PROFIBUS-DP” (p. 30).

To set the PG/PC interface, follow these steps:

1. From the SIMATIC Manager, select Options > Set PG/PC Interface.

2. Examine the Interface Parameter Assignment Used field. If it does not show the appropriate interface parameter, select an interface from the list. For example, select CP5611(MPI) or CP5611(PROFIBUS) for a CP5611 card, or a TCP/IP option that corresponds to an Ethernet card in your PC.

3. Set the Properties for the Interface Parameter Assignment according to your type of connection:

MPI/PROFIBUS: Set the baud rate for the first download to 187.5 Kbps and use an MPI interface. This is the default setting for the multi panel.

Ethernet (TCP/IP): Click the Properties button and deselect the checkbox for “Fast Acknowledge”. You cannot download from STEP 7 to the multi panel if Fast Acknowledge is selected.

4. Click the OK button to accept the card configuration and close the window.

Before you download the configuration, check the following:

• Ensure that WinAC MP is executing on the multi panel. Start the WinAC MP ProTool project if it is not already running. If WinAC MP is shut down, press the Start WinAC MP key (S3 on the keyboard unit) or touch the Start WinAC MP button (touch panel unit).

• Ensure the multi panel is ready for a Transfer. If you have set the Remote Control option and a ProTool project is running, the multi panel can receive a transfer from the configuration computer. If Remote Control is not set, exit ProTool and select Transfer. The multi panel displays a Transfer dialog with a “Connecting to host” message, and is ready for a transfer. For information on remote control, see “Using the Remote Control Option” (p.8).


30

To download the configuration, follow these steps:

1. From the Hardware Config utility on the configuration computer, click the icon to download the configuration of the STEP 7 project.

2. On the Select Target Module dialog, highlight only the WinLC MP module selection and click the OK button. The Select node address is displayed.

3. For MPI/PROFIBUS connections, enter the Station Address of the multi panel: use the address that is currently configured for the multi panel, not the new address that you are assigning. The default multi panel address, if you have not previously made an address assignment, is MPI 2 or PROFIBUS 2.

For Ethernet connections, verify that the IP address of the multi panel is correct and click OK.

STEP 7 downloads the hardware configuration to the WinAC MP controller and sets the MPI/PROFIBUS interface on the multi panel to PROFIBUS-DP. A dialog confirms whether the download is successful.

If you used an Ethernet connection to the multi panel, you can continue to perform Ethernet downloads to the multi panel and do not need to make changes to the PG/PC interface settings in STEP 7.

(Optional) Changing the PG/PC Interface from MPI to PROFIBUS-DP If you used an MPI connection to the multi panel, that connection is no longer functional. Downloading the DP master hardware configuration changed the port protocol from MPI to PROFIBUS-DP on the multi panel. You cannot use the MPI connection to the multi panel.

In order to perform subsequent downloads to the WinAC MP controller from STEP 7, you must switch your PG/PC interface to PROFIBUS-DP, and define the communications settings from the values you noted in the subnet properties of the PROFIBUS-DP master. To change your PG/PC interface, follow these steps:

1. From the SIMATIC Manager, select Options > Set PG/PC Interface.

2. Select the interface parameter corresponding to the CP card in your configuration computer using the PROFIBUS-DP bus profile, for example, CP5611(PROFIBUS).

3. Click the Properties button.

4. In the Properties dialog, enter the same values for Network Parameters that you noted for the subnet properties, as described in the section “Defining I/O Communication Settings and Network Properties” (p. 27).

Transmission Rate

Highest Station Address (Highest PROFIBUS Address field in Properties dialog for the PROFIBUS subnet)

Profile (DP)

Note The Address field contains the address of the configuration computer (default 0), not the address of the SIMATIC PC station (default 2). Leave it as it is.

5. Click the OK button to confirm your work and close the Properties dialog.

6. Click the OK button to confirm your work and close the PG/PC Interface dialog.


31

Testing the Online Connection After you complete the network configuration, verify that the connection between STEP 7 and the WinAC MP station is operational. Testing the Online Connection

You can verify the connection from the SIMATIC Manager by clicking the online icon.

If you are communicating directly over the PROFIBUS-DP network from the configuration computer to the multi panel (not using an Ethernet connection), you can also test the connection by selecting the Accessible Nodes icon. The PROFIBUS node of the multi panel appears in the list of network nodes.

If the network configuration is not online, review the steps of the network configuration as described in the preceding topics and correct any errors.

Developing and Downloading the User Program Develop your control program in the STEP 7 project, creating and editing the blocks necessary for control of your process. Download the created blocks either from the SIMATIC Manager or from the STEP 7 option that you used to create the blocks. For detailed information about developing a project using STEP 7, refer to your STEP 7 documentation.

33

Controlling Your Process with WinAC MP This topic describes how to control your process with WinAC MP by using an example ProTool project. You can also customize the example project screens or create your own screens as described in “Customizing WinAC MP for Your Application” (p. 45). If you have successfully completed the procedures described in the topics “Transferring WinAC MP to the Multi Panel” (p.7) and “Developing and Downloading a STEP 7 Project” (p.23), you now have an executable control program loaded in the WinAC MP controller, and an interface (the example ProTool project) from which to control it. Additionally, you may have developed screens with ProTool CS for your specific process application. The initial screen displayed on the multi panel when you download the example ProTool project is the WinAC_MP_Panel screen. From this screen, you can perform WinAC MP functions, view all of the WinAC MP status indicators, change the operating mode of the controller, and monitor scan cycle data:



34

Functions Available from the Example Screens The table below describes the functions available from the WinAC MP example screens, and lists the key equivalents for the MP370 keyboard unit. The key assignments are not applicable for the MP370 touch panel units, where you simply touch a button on the screen to select it.

Key Function Name Function Description S2 Exit ProTool Exits ProTool RT. It does not shut down the

WinAC MP controller. S3 Start WinAC MP Starts the WinAC MP controller on the multi panel. S4 Shutdown WinAC MP Shuts down the WinAC MP controller. When

WinAC MP is shut down, the controller and control program are not executing.

Clear Histogram Data (WinAC_MP_Panel screen)

S7 Archive Save the control program to an archive file. S8 Restore Restore the control program from an archive file. F1, F2 Switch Between Screens Switches the display from one screen to the next on

the multi panel.

Note: Starting the ProTool project or exiting it has no effect on whether the WinAC MP controller is executing or shut down. The WinAC MP controller can be executing regardless of whether the ProTool screens are displayed or not.


35

Status Indicators The WinAC MP Control Panel that is shown in the ProTool example project displays the normal status indicators found on a WinLC Control Panel or on an S7-300/400 controller. These indicators are view-only: you cannot use them to change modes or set faults in the WinAC MP controller.

The status indicators are described below:

Indicator Description ON The ON indicator is on when the WinAC MP controller is running.

The ON indicator is off when a shutdown of the WinAC MP controller finishes saving the program and states to the flash file system.

BATF Battery fault. Always off for WinAC MP. INTF Internal fault. This indicator lights up (solid) to show error conditions that exist

within the controller, such as programming errors, arithmetic errors, timer errors and counter errors.

EXTF External fault. This indicator lights up (solid) to show error conditions that exist outside of the controller, such as hardware faults, parameter assignment errors, communication errors, and I/O fault errors.

BUSF1

The BUSF1 indicator flashes to identify fault conditions in the communication with the distributed I/O.

FRCE This indicator lights up (solid) to show that a force request in active. Not applicable for WinAC MP.

RUN STOP

The RUN indicator lights up when the operating mode is RUN. The STOP indicator lights up when the operating mode is STOP. The RUN indicator blinks at 2Hz and the STOP indicator lights up (solid) when the WinAC MP controller is executing a restart. The RUN indicator blinks at 0.5Hz and the STOP indicator lights up (solid) when the WinAC MP program has reached a breakpoint. The STOP indicator flashes slowly when WinAC MP requires a memory reset. To recover from this condition, perform a memory reset (MRES).

All status indicators flashing

When all of the status indicators are flashing, the WinAC MP controller has encountered an error condition that cannot be fixed by resetting the memory (MRES). To recover from this condition, you must perform the following tasks:

1. Shut down the WinAC MP controller. 2. Restart the WinAC MP controller. 3. Reset the memory (MRES).

The example projects that are supplied with WinAC MP have all of the functionality described above. If you want to change anything on the example project screens, or put WinAC MP control functions or indicators on any of your other application screens, refer to the topic “Customizing WinAC MP for Your Application” (p. 45).


36

Operating Mode Change Buttons Both example screens contain a WinAC MP control panel from which you can change the operating mode of the controller. The mode change buttons correspond to global keys on the MP370 keyboard unit and to touch buttons on the MP370 Touch (12” or 15”).

Warning Do not attempt to download from ProTool CS to the multi panel when the controller is in RUN or RUN-P mode.

Downloads from ProTool CS while the controller is running interrupt process control and could cause death, serious injury and/or property damage.

Always put the controller in STOP mode, or shut down WinAC MP before downloading from ProTool CS.

The operating modes are described below:

Key Operating Mode Description S12 RUN-P Put the WinAC MP controller in RUN-PROGRAM Mode. When the

controller is in RUN-P mode, you can: Upload a STEP 7 program from the controller to your

configuration computer.

Download a STEP 7 program from your configuration computer to the controller.

Download individual STEP 7 blocks to the controller.

Use external software (such as STEP 7) to change the operating mode of the controller.

S13 RUN Puts the WinAC MP controller in RUN Mode. In RUN mode you can upload a program from the controller to your configuration computer, but you cannot download a program to the controller.

S14 STOP Puts the WinAC MP controller in STOP Mode. The program stops executing. You can perform program uploads and downloads, and you can download from ProTool CS.

S15 MRES Resets the WinAC MP controller memory. This includes resetting the hardware configuration, deleting the WinAC MP program, and resetting the memory areas (I,Q,M,T, and C).

Performing a Memory Reset (MRES) A memory reset (MRES) erases the STEP 7 project from the WinAC MP controller. You must download your project from STEP 7 again before the WinAC MP controller can resume process control.


37

Clearing Histogram Data The WinAC MP controller maintains a buffer of scan cycle time data and uses this historical data to compute and display the last cycle time, the average cycle time, and the maximum and minimum cycle times. The WinAC_MP_Panel screen displays these values numerically, and in a histogram. The histogram displays the percentage of scan cycles executing at the recorded scan cycle times.

To empty this buffer of data, press the Clear Histogram Data key (keyboard unit) or touch the Clear Histogram Data touch button (touch panel units) on the WinAC_MP_Panel screen. When WinAC MP is running, it immediately begins collecting cycle time data again. The screen updates according to the new buffer of scan cycle times.

Starting the Controller when the Multi Panel Boots By default, you must start the WinAC MP controller manually after the multi panel boots. You can, however, enable the controller to start automatically after the multi panel boots. If you enable the controller to start at boot, you can also use the Autostart feature to determine the initial operating mode.

From the WinAC_MP_Function screen, the Start at Boot key or touch button acts as a toggle. When the button display is cyan, start at boot is enabled. When the button display is gray, start at boot is disabled.

Enabling the Controller for Start at Boot

To configure the WinAC MP controller to start automatically, select the Start at Boot key or touch button so that the button display is cyan.

When enabled to start at boot, the WinAC MP controller starts automatically whenever the multi panel boots.

Disabling the Controller for Start at Boot

To configure the controller so that is does not start automatically, deselect the Start at Boot key (S7 on keyboard units) or Start at Boot touch button (touch panel units) so that the button display is gray.

When you disable start at boot, WinAC MP does not start automatically whenever the multi panel boots. To start WinAC MP, you must start the ProTool project, and then use the Start WinAC MP key (S3 on keyboard units) or Start WinAC MP touch button (touch panel units).

Enabling the Autostart Feature WinAC MP includes an Autostart feature that defines whether the controller starts up in STOP or RUN mode when WinAC MP is configured to start at boot. If WinAC MP is configured for a manual start, then the controller always starts in STOP mode. The following table lists the parameters that the Autostart feature uses to determine the operating mode of the controller when it starts automatically after a boot of the multi panel.

Mode at Shutdown Autostart Mode on Restart

No STOP STOP

Yes STOP

No STOP RUN

Yes RUN

To enable or disable the Autostart feature, use the Autostart key (S6 on keyboard units) or Autostart touch button (touch panel units) from either of the ProTool project example screens. When the button display is cyan, Autostart is enabled. When the button display is gray, Autostart is disabled.


39

Archiving and Restoring Control Programs You can save the configuration and control program to an archive file. You can use this archive file like the removable memory cartridge of a hardware controller. Saving the configuration of the controller and the control program to an archive file makes it easy to restore the controller after a memory reset. However, the archive file does not function like the EEPROM cartridge of the hardware controller in that the WinAC MP controller does not automatically restore the archive file after a memory reset (MRES). You must manually restore the archive file.

You can archive or restore a file only when the operating mode (keyswitch position) is set to STOP.

Note You cannot archive or restore a file larger than 1 Mbyte.

Creating an Archive File

An Archive file stores the current control program, the current system configuration, and the initial values of the DBs. The Archive file does not store the configuration of the PC station.

To create an Archive file, use the Archive key (S5 on keyboard unit) or the Archive touch button (Touch panel units) on either of the WinAC MP example screens. The Archive command displays a dialog that allows you to navigate and give a name to the file. You can save the archive file to the flash file, a memory card, or a remote computer.

Note If you save an archive on the multi panel in a directory other than the Flash directory, the file is lost with the next reboot. To retain the archive file, use the Flash directory, or save it to a remote computer or removable storage media.

You can also use the SIMATIC Manager of STEP 7 to create an Archive file. Select the File > Memory Card File > New menu command.

Restoring an Archive File

When you restore an archive file, you reload the configuration and the control program for the controller. You can restore archive files from the flash file, a memory card, or remote computer, depending on where you stored your archive files.

Before you can restore an archive file, you must set the operating mode (keyswitch position) of the controller to STOP mode. To restore an archive file, follow these steps:

1. Click the STOP key (S14 on the keyboard unit) to the STOP touch button (touch panel units) to place the controller in STOP mode.

2. Select the the Restore key (S6 on the keyboard unit) or the Restore touch button (touch panel units).

3. Select the specific archive file to restore from the dialog and click OK.

Understanding the Tuning Parameters The multi panel processor must perform both WinAC MP control program execution and ProTool screen processing. The example ProTool projects include a WinAC_MP_Panel screen that displays information about the cycle time, and enables you to change the Min Sleep Time value and observe its effect on the cycle time. The WinAC_MP_Panel screen is shown below:


Viewing Cycle Time Data The WinAC_MP_Panel screen provides output fields that display the last cycle time, average cycle time, maximum cycle time, and minimum cycle time, as well as a histogram of cycle times (the Histogram control). The histogram shows the percentage of scans that occur at a particular scan time. The WinAC_MP_Panel screen also includes a Clear Histogram Data key (S7 on keyboard units) or Clear Histogram Data touch button (touch panel units) that resets the collected cycle time data.


41

Configuring the Minimum Sleep Time The minimum sleep time value allows you to ensure that there is always a specified amount of processing time between scan cycles available to processes other than the WinAC MP controller.

The minimum sleep time value allows you to increase or decrease the execution time of the WinAC MP control program, which has an indirect effect on all other processes that are running on the multi panel. The default minimum sleep time for the WinAC MP controller is 50 ms, and the lowest allowed minimum sleep time is 1 ms. A high sleep time value increases the execution time of the control program by enforcing a sleep interval between scan cycles. The higher the sleep time value, the more processing time that is available to processes other than the WinAC MP controller. The net effect is to raise the processing time of ProTool on the multi panel relative to the processing time of the WinAC MP controller.

A low sleep time value decreases the execution time of the user program by decreasing or eliminating the sleep time between scan cycles. The lower the sleep time value, the less processing time that is available to processes other than the WinAC MP controller. The net effect is to lower the processing time of ProTool on the multi panel insofar as the processing time of the WinAC MP controller is raised. If ProTool appears to be irregular or erratic in updating the screens, increase the minimum sleep time. Raising the minimum sleep time of the control program allocates more processing time for ProTool.

Peer-to-Peer Communication Functions Like other S7 controllers, WinAC MP provides peer-to-peer communications between other S7 controllers on the network. The controllers can be either hardware or software logic controllers. The table below lists the SFBs and SFCs that WinAC MP supports for peer-to-peer communications:

SFB/SFC Designation Description

SFB8 SFB9

USEND URCV

Exchange data using a send and a receive SFB

SFB12 SFB13

BSEND BRCV

Exchange blocks of data of variable length between a send SFB and a receive SFB

SFB14 SFB15

GET PUT

Read data from a remote device Write data to a remote device

SFB22 SFB23

STATUS USTATUS

Specific query of the status of a remote device Receive status messages from a remote device

SFC62 CONTROL Query the status of a connection that belongs to an instance of an SFB/FB

For more information on these functions, refer to the System Software for S7-300/400 System and Standard Functions Reference Manual. To view this manual from a computer where STEP 7 is installed, select the menu command Start > Simatic > Documentation > English, and double-click "STEP 7 - System and Standard Functions for S7-300 and S7-400".


42

Configuring the Retentive Data You can use the Retentive Memory tab of the STEP 7 Hardware Configuration tool to configure the following areas of memory to be retained in the event of loss of power or on a transition from STOP mode to RUN mode:

• Number of Memory bytes: up to 2048 bytes (from MB0 to MB2047)

• Number of S7 timers: up to 512 timers (from T 0 to T 511)

• Number of S7 counters: up to 512 counters (from C 0 to C 511)

In the event of an abnormal shutdown such as a loss of power while the controller is running, the current values for these areas, as well as the DBs, are lost. When you use the Shutdown WinAC MP key (S4 on keyboard units) or the Shutdown WinAC MP touch button (touch panel units) to perform a normal shutdown, WinAC MP retains the values according to the configured parameters shown in the table below:

Note DBs that were created by SFC22 (CREATE_DB) are not retained following a cold restart. All other DBs are retentive following a normal shutdown.

Parameter Description Range Default

Memory Bytes Enters the number of memory bytes to be retained (starting from MB0)

0 to 2048

16

S7 Timers Enters the number of S7 timers to be retained (starting from T 0)

0 to 512 0

S7 Counters Enters the number of S7 counters to be retained (starting from C 0)

0 to 512 8

Because the retentive data is not saved when a loss of power occurs, you can use SFC82 to SFC84 in your control program to save important data periodically. Then, when you restart WinAC MP following a power outage, you can retrieve the last data saved.


43

Using SFCs to Retain Data You can use SFC82 (CREA_DBL), SFC83 (READ_DBL), and SFC84 (WRIT_DBL) to save data at significant events in your process. For example, you may want to store the recipe values into Load memory when changing a recipe without downloading new blocks for the control program.

Caution Whenever your control program calls SFC82, SFC83, or SFC84, the SFC reads or writes data to the flash memory. If you call these SFCs every scan (such as from OB1) or from a cyclical OB that is executing rapidly, the constant reading or writing to the flash memory can cause the flash memory to fail or can cause jitter. You should only call SFC82, SFC83, or SFC84 to record a significant process event, such as a change of recipe.

SFC82 and SFC84 modify the data for the control program that is stored in the Load memory. Saving the blocks to Load memory (instead of keeping the values in Work memory) ensures that these blocks are available even if WinAC MP cannot save the power-down state when shutting down the controller.

SFC82, SFC83, and SFC84 create and update blocks that are stored as part of your control program in Load memory. The blocks are created or modified in Load memory when your control program executes these SFCs.

SFC82, SFC83, and SFC84 are asynchronous SFCs that run in the background.

Note If you call SFC82, SFC83, or SFC84 from the startup OB (OB100 or OB102), WinAC MP executes these SFCs synchronously. This differs from the operation of a hardware PLC.

Like the other asynchronous SFCs, SFC82, SFC83, and SFC84 are typically long-running SFCs that can require a relatively long time to complete. (The time for the SFC call itself will be short, but the actual operation for the SFC will be executing in the background.) In order to use asynchronous SFCs, you must allow sufficient sleep time to allow WinAC MP to process the SFCs without encountering jitter.

Note Do not use a polling loop that looks for the completion of an asynchronous SFC, especially for SFC82, SFC83, or SFC84. Because the asynchronous SFC is being executed in the background, having your control program loop until the SFC finishes will extend the execution of the OB that is performing the polling loop and can cause jitter.

45

Customizing WinAC MP for Your Application ProTool CS is the configuration system of ProTool and is used for the development of process visualization screens. ProTool RT is the runtime version of ProTool that runs on the multi panel. You download a project from ProTool CS on the configuration computer to ProTool RT on the multi panel. You use these screens on the multi panel for controlling and monitoring the process.

You can use the example ProTool projects for the MP370, MP370 Touch, or MP370 15” Touch without modification. You can also use ProTool CS to modify an example project for your application, or to create a new project. The WinAC MP installation integrated all of the WinAC MP functions and ActiveX controls into ProTool CS. You can copy screens or screen objects from one project to another. To open ProTool CS, select the Start > SIMATIC > ProTool CS > ProTool Pro CS menu command.

See your ProTool CS documentation for detailed information on contstructing screens and using the features of ProTool.


46

Mapping Functions in a ProTool Project With ProTool CS, you can design screens and map functions to control the display of controller data during runtime. You can map functions to Global Keys, Soft Keys, System Keys, input and output display fields, buttons, graphical displays, and other screen objects.

You can configure events that define when these functions execute; for example, you can update the value in an output field whenever the tag value associated with that output field changes. You can configure events for the screen, so that when you enter a screen, the functions that you have configured for it execute.

ProTool CS provides the capability to map functions to the following events, depending on the type of object being configured.

Tag Values:

A tag value changes

A tag value is lower than the limit

A tag value is higher than the limit

Button Events:

A button is clicked

A button comes up

A button goes down

Screen Events:

A screen is entered

A screen is exited

Field Events:

A field is entered

A field is exited

Alarm Message Events:

An alarm message arrives

An alarm message departs

An alarm message is acknowledged

Event Message Events:

An event message arrives

An event message departs

An event message is acknowledged

Overflow Events:

An archive overflow occurs

A screen overflow occurs

A window overflow occurs

A password overflow occurs

For information about mapping functions to keys, screen changes, field changes, or any of the activation mechanisms described above, refer to your ProTool CS documentation.

The installation of WinAC MP added the WinAC MP functions to the set of functions already provided by ProTool. You can see these functions in ProTool CS in the WinAC MP function group. The WinAC MP example ProTool projects show how to use many of these functions.


47

WinAC MP Functions The following table describes all of the WinAC MP functions that are available when you build screens in ProTool CS. To update values displayed on a ProTool screen, you use the Update and Get functions. To set or change values in the controller, you use the Set functions.

48

You can use ProTool CS to configure any of the WinAC MP functions in your project. You must then download your ProTool project to the multi panel for process control.

Note Functions that display a value (Get and Update functions) must be configured to the screen, or else the screen does not show the updates. The examples for configuring a screen output to display the average cycle time describe the use of screen events.

To see how WinAC MP functions are used within ProTool, you can examine the mapping of functions to screen objects in one of the example projects.

Using the WinAC MP ActiveX Controls The installation of WinAC MP added two ActiveX controls to ProTool CS. The WinAC_MP_Panel screen uses both of these controls. To insert one of these controls on a ProTool screen, copy it from the WinAC_MP_Panel screen, or click the appropriate icon in ProTool CS. The WinAC MP ActiveX controls are described below:

Object Icon Description

WinAC MP Displays a control panel for the WinAC MP controller

Histogram Displays a histogram of scan cycle times for the WinAC MP controller


49

Saving, Compiling, and Downloading ProTool Projects After you finish your changes in ProTool CS, you must save, compile and download your configuration to the multi panel.

To save a ProTool CS project, click or select File > Save at any time.

To compile your ProTool CS project work to date, click or select File > Compile at any time.

Warning Downloading a ProTool CS configuration to the multi panel while the WinAC MP controller is in RUN mode interrupts the execution of the process.

If process equipment is not in a safe state, interrupting the execution of the process could result in death or serious injury to personnel, and/or damage to equipment.

Shut down the WinAC MP controller or set it to STOP mode before you download any ProTool CS configuration. Ensure that your equipment is in a safe state. Always install a physical emergency stop circuit for your machine or process.

To download your ProTool project from the configuration computer to the multi panel, follow these steps:

1. Shut down WinAC MP on the multi panel.

2. If you have Remote Control enabled on the multi panel, do not exit ProTool on the multi panel. ProTool RT can accept an automatic transfer when configured for Remote Control.

If you do not have Remote Control enabled on the multi panel, exit ProTool and select Transfer from the Loader dialog on the multi panel. The multi panel opens a connection for your configuration computer and displays a "Connecting to host" message.

3. Save, compile, and download your project from ProTool CS on the configuration computer.

After you download a project to the multi panel, you can begin using it for process control.


50

Examples The following sections provide three examples of configuring objects in ProTool CS to work with the WinAC MP controller. An example for the keyboard unit explains how to configure a global key to start or shut down WinAC MP. An example for the touch panel unit shows how to configure a global touch button to start or shut down WinAC MP. The third example is for any type of multi panel and demonstrates how to configure an output field to display the average cycle time.

Keyboard Unit Example: Configuring a Global Key to Start or Shut Down WinAC MP The Start WinAC MP and Shutdown WinAC MP keys are configured locally for each screen of the example project, but you might want to configure a global key that would work for every screen of the project. The Control_WinAC_MP function can be used to start the WinAC MP controller or shut down the WinAC MP controller. In this example, you learn how to configure a global key that shuts down the WinAC MP controller.

Follow these steps to configure a global function key on the multi panel to shut down WinAC MP:

1. Create or open a ProTool CS project with at least one screen.

2. From ProTool CS, select System > Screen/Keys. ProTool CS displays the Screen/Keys dialog that displays the screen area and the keys on the multi panel.

If you do not see keys on the dialog, you may have opened a project for a touch panel. If so, close the project and open or create a project for the MP370 multi panel. You also do not see the keys if you have clicked the Hide Keys button. Click the Display Keys button to display the keys on the keyboard unit.

3. From the Screen/Keys dialog, click the function key that you want to map to shut down WinAC MP. ProTool displays the Function Key dialog and the Select Object dialog. If the Select Object dialog does not open automatically, select the checkbox for “Show Functions Available for Selection.”

4. From the Function Key dialog, select Press Key () from the Selected Functions for Event list. (The number enclosed in the parenthesis marks indicates how many functions have been configured for this event on this key.)

5. From the Select Object dialog, navigate to the WinAC MP function group, and click Control_WinAC_MP.

6. Click the <<Add button. The Parameters-Control_WinAC_MP dialog opens.

7. From the Parameters-Control_WinAC_MP dialog, select Shutdown_WinAC_MP for the winac parameter.

8. Click OK to close the Parameters-Control_WinAC_MP dialog.

9. Close the Select Object dialog.

10. Click OK to close the Function Key dialog.

The Screen/Keys dialog displays a green triangle in the lower corner of the key that you configured, indicating that a function is globally mapped to the key.

11. Click OK to close the Screen/Keys dialog.

Following successful configuration, the function key displays the green triangle in the Screen window for all the screens, indicating that the key is globally mapped.

After you finish your changes in ProTool CS, you must save, compile and download your project to the multi panel. After a successful download, you can use the global key that you configured to shut down the WinAC MP controller from any ProTool screen on the multi panel.


51

Touch Panel Unit Example: Configuring a Global Button to Start or Shut Down WinAC MP The Start WinAC MP and Shutdown WinAC MP functions are configured locally in each screen of the example project, but you might want to configure a global button that would work in every screen of the project. The Control_WinAC_MP function can be used to start the WinAC MP controller or shut down the WinAC MP controller. In this example, you learn how to configure a global button that shuts down the WinAC MP controller.

Follow these steps to configure a global function button on the multi panel to shut down WinAC MP:


2. Select and double-click any screen in the project to open it.

3. From the ProTool CS Screen Objects toolbar, click the Button toolbar button, then click in the fixed window at the top of the screen. (By placing the button in the fixed window, rather than the basic area, you are defining it as a global rather than a local object.) The button appears where you clicked and the Button dialog opens.

4. From the General tab of the Button dialog, replace the ? in the Text box with the words “Shut down WinAC MP”.

5. Click the Functions tab. The Select Object dialog opens above the Button dialog. If the Select Object dialog does not open automatically, select the “Show Functions Available for Selection” checkbox.

6. From the Select Object dialog, navigate to the WinAC MP function group, and click Control_WinAC_MP.

7. Click the <<Add button. The Parameters-Control_WinAC_MP dialog opens.

8. From the Parameters-Control_WinAC_MP dialog, select Shutdown_WinAC_MP for the winac parameter.

9. Click OK to close the Parameters-Control_WinAC_MP dialog.

10. Close the Select Object dialog.

11. From the Functions tab of the Button dialog, select OnClick() from the Selected Functions for Event list. (The number enclosed in the parentheses marks indicates how many functions have been configured for this event on this key.)

12. Click the OK button to dismiss the Button dialog.

Following successful configuration, all the screens in the ProTool project display the global button that you configured.

After you finish your changes in ProTool CS, you must save, compile and download your project to the multi panel. After a successful download, you can use the global button that you configured to shut down the WinAC MP controller from any ProTool screen on the multi panel.


52

Example for All Units: Configuring an Output Field to Display the Average Cycle Time This example shows how to insert a field on a ProTool screen that displays a numeric value for the average cycle time of the WinAC MP controller. This example applies to both the keyboard and touch panel units. You use the WinAC MP function Update_Average_Cycle_Time to provide the numeric value to display on the ProTool screen.

Assigning a Tag to an Output Field on a ProTool Screen To insert an output field on a ProTool screen and map it to the average cycle time of the WinAC MP controller, follow these steps:


2. Select and double-click any screen in the project to open it.

3. Select the output field icon from the screen objects toolbar or select Insert > Output Field from the menu, and place the output field object on your screen. The Output Field dialog opens.

Figure: Configuring an Output Field

4. If a tag for the average cycle time value already exists, select it from the list of tags for the Value field and click the Edit Tag button . The Tag dialog opens.

If a tag for the average cycle time value does not exist, click the New Tag button to create a tag for the value that the output field will display. The Tag dialog opens.


53

5. For a new tag, enter a tag name in the Name field of the Tag dialog, for example, AvgCycle.

Select <No Controller> from the list for the PLC field. The WinAC MP function supplies the average cycle time; you do not obtain this value from an address in the PLC.

Figure: Entering a New Tag

6. Click OK on the Tag dialog and Output Field dialog.

You now have an output field on your ProTool screen with a tag for the average cycle time assigned to it. Next, you must associate the Update_Average_Cycle_Time WinAC MP function with this tag and this screen. You use the Generate Screen and Clear Screen ProTool events to complete this configuration.


54

Configuring a Generate Screen Event For any of the Get and Update functions, you must map the function and the tag to a Generate Screen event for the screen.

To configure the AvgCycle tag and Update_Average_Cycle_Time function for a Generate Screen event, follow these steps:

1. Click anywhere in the background area of screen. Be sure you did not select a screen object.

2. Select Edit > Properties for the screen and select the Functions tab. The screen properties dialog opens, and the Select Object dialog opens. If you do not see the Select Object dialog, select the “Show Functions Available for Selection” checkbox on the screen properties dialog.

3. Select a Generate Screen event on the screen properties dialog if it is not already selected.

4. Select the Update_Average_Cycle_Time function from the list of WinAC MP functions in the Select Object dialog and click the <<Add button to map it to the Generate Screen event. The Parameters dialog opens.

5. In the Cycle_Time field of the Parameters dialog, select the tag name you entered for the average cycle time value from the list.

By default, the Action field is set to Switch_On. If not, select the Action parameter and select Switch_On from the action list.

6. Click OK on the Parameters dialog.

7. Close the Select Object dialog, and click OK on the screen dialog.

You now have a screen that displays the average cycle time for WinAC MP.


55

Configuring a Clear Screen Event For screens with functions mapped to generate screen events, you must unmap the functions when the screen is cleared (exited). You must configure a clear screen event that corresponds to each generate screen event.

To configure the AvgCycle tag and Update_Average_Cycle_Time function for a Clear Screen event, follow these steps:

1. Click anywhere in the background area of screen. Be sure you did not select a screen object.

2. Select Edit > Properties for the screen and select the Functions tab. The screen properties dialog opens, and the Select Object dialog opens. If you do not see the Select Object dialog, select the “Show Functions Available for Selection” checkbox on the screen properties dialog.

3. Select a Clear Screen event on the screen properties dialog.

4. Select the Update_Average_Cycle_Time function from the list of WinAC MP functions on the Select Object dialog and click the <<Add button to map it to the Clear Screen event. The Parameters dialog opens.

5. In the Cycle_Time field of the Parameters dialog, select the tag name you entered for the average cycle time value from the list.

By default, the Action field is set to Switch_Off. If not, select the Action parameter and select Switch_Off from the action list.

6. Click OK on the Parameters dialog.

7. Close the Select Object dialog, and click OK on the screen dialog.

Note For each Generate Screen event you configured, you must configure a corresponding Clear Screen event.

After you finish your changes in ProTool CS, you must save, compile and download your configuration to the multi panel. After a successful download, WinAC MP displays the average cycle time in the field that you configured.

Reference Features of the WinAC MP Controller The WinAC MP controller has the following features:

Accumulators: 4 (ACCU 1 to ACCU 4)

Communications: PROFIBUS-DP master device

Work memory

Load memory (RAM)

Distributed I/O only, no local I/O:

You can configure the size of both process-image I/O areas (I and Q memory areas) from 0 to 8192 bytes. These memory areas can be accessed directly by the instructions in the user program.

Using Load (L) and Transfer (T) instructions (for statement list) or the Assign Value (MOVE) instruction (for ladder logic) to the peripheral I/O (PI and PQ memory areas), you can access up to 16384 bytes of inputs and 16384 bytes of outputs.

The WinAC MP controller communicates with the distributed I/O as a PROFIBUS-DP master device. As a master device, the WinAC MP controller can communicate with up to 32 slave devices (either S7-DP slaves or other DP slaves).

Organization Blocks (OBs) Supported OBs are the interface between the operating system of WinAC MP and the control program. The table below lists the OBs which are supported. The WinAC MP controller executes OBs according to the priority class.

Organization Blocks (OBs) Supported

OB Description Priority Class OB1 Main program cycle 1 (lowest) OB10 Time-of-day interrupt 2 to 24 OB20 Time-delay interrupt 2 to 24 OB35, OB36 Cyclic interrupt 2 to 24 OB40 Hardware interrupt 2 to 24 OB55 Status alarm interrupt 2 to 24 OB56 Update alarm interrupt 2 to 24 OB57 Manufacturer-specific alarm interrupt 2 to 24 OB80 Time error 26 OB82 Diagnostic interrupt 24 to 26 (or 28) (*) OB83 Module remove/insert interrupt 24 to 26 (or 28) (*) OB85 Priority class error 24 to 26 (or 28) (*) OB86 Rack failure 24 to 26 (or 28) (*) OB100 Warm restart 27 OB102 Cold restart 27 OB121 Programming error Priority class of the OB where the

error occurred OB122 I/O access error Priority class of the OB that was

interrupted (*) Priority class 28 during STARTUP mode of The WinAC MP controller, user-configurable priority class (from 24 to

26) in RUN mode.

OBs for the Main Program Cycle, Cold Restart, and Warm Restart The table below shows OBs for the main program cycle and cold and warm restarts. The WinAC MP controller uses OB1 (main program cycle) for continuously executing the user program. On the transition from STOP mode to RUN mode (or RUN-P mode), the WinAC MP controller executes OB100 (warm restart) or OB102 (cold restart), based either on the hardware configuration for the WinAC MP controller or which restart option was selected from a dialog displayed by the CPU panel. After OB100 (or OB102) has been successfully executed, the WinAC MP controller executes OB1.

Interrupt OBs The WinAC MP controller provides a variety of OBs that interrupt the execution of OB1. The table below lists the different interrupt OBs that are supported by the WinAC MP controller. These interrupts occur according to the type and configuration of the OB.

The priority class determines whether the WinAC MP controller suspends the execution of the user program (or other OB) and executes the interrupting OB. The priority class is configurable.

Interrupt OBs

Interrupts Start Event (in Hex)

Default Priority

Time-of-Day Interrupt OB10 1111 (OB10) 2 (Low)

Time-Delay Interrupt Range: 1 ms to 60000 ms

Hardware interrupt OB40 1141 (channel 1) 16 (High) Status alarm interrupt OB55 2 to 24 Update alarm interrupt OB56 2 to 24 Manufacturer-specific alarm interrupt

OB57 2 to 24

If the WinAC MP controller has been configured to execute a particular interrupt OB, but that OB has not been downloaded, the WinAC MP controller reacts in the following manner:

If OB10, OB20, OB40 , OB55, OB56, or OB57 is missing and OB85 has not been downloaded, the WinAC MP controller changes operating mode (from RUN to STOP).

WinLC remains in RUN mode if a cyclic interrupt OB (OB32 to OB36) is missing. If these OBs cannot be executed at the specified time and OB80 has not been downloaded, WinLC changes from RUN mode to STOP mode

Note You can configure OB35 and OB36 to be executed as frequently as every 10 milliseconds (ms). If you schedule an OB to be executed at a specific interval, make certain that the program can be executed within the time frame and also that your WinAC MP application can process the OB within the allotted time.

Reference

62

Error OBs As shown in the table below, the WinAC MP controller supports a variety of error OBs. Some of these error OBs have the configured (user-assigned) priority class, while others (OB121 and OB122) inherit the priority class of the block where the error occurred.

The local variables for OB121 and OB122 contain the following information that can be used by the program to respond to the error:

The type of block (byte 4) and the number (bytes 8 and 9) where the error occurred

The address within the block (bytes 10 and 11) where the error occurred

If the start event occurs for a particular error OB that has not been downloaded, the WinAC MP controller changes operating mode from RUN to STOP.

System Status List (SSL) STEP 7 stores read-only information about the controller in the system status list (SSL) as a set of sublists.

You use SFC51 (RDSYSST) to access the entries in the system status list. You supply the input parameters SSL_ID and Index to access the records stored in the sublist. SFC51 returns a two-word header and a sublist or partial sublist. The header provides the following information about the sublist:

The first word defines the length (size in bytes) of a record for the sublist.

The second word defines the number of records contained in the sublist.

The sublist that follows contains all of the information requested. The size of the sublist in bytes is the record length times the number of records.

For more information about the system status list, see the System Software for S7-300 and S7-400 System and Standard Functions Reference Manual.

The table below provides an overview of the SSL sublists, sorted according to the SSL-ID. You use the SSL-ID and index (as hexadecimal numbers: 16#) to access the records stored in the sublist.

Troubleshooting Use the table below to troubleshoot difficulties that you encounter.

Troubleshooting

Problem Possible Cause Corrective Action Nothing displays on the multi panel after installing the WinAC MP runtime files.

Multi panel does not have a ProTool project with a user interface for the WinAC MP controller.

Use ProTool CS to install the example ProTool project with WinAC MP screens, or a customized project, on the multi panel.

The WinAC MP software did not transfer to the multi panel.

Wrong cable used, wrong ports connected, or wrong parameters specified.

Review the topic “Setting Parameters for Communications” (p.8) and correct any errors.

Parameter mismatch. Make sure you use the IP address of the multi panel in your connection parameters on the configuration computer. Review the topic “Setting Parameters for Communications” (p.8).

Fast Acknowledge is set Open Setting the PG/PC Interface from STEP 7 and the Properties dialog for the Interface Parameter Assignment field. Verify that the checkbox for “Fast Acknowledge” is not selected. You cannot download from STEP 7 to the multi panel if Fast Acknowledge is selected.

Ethernet communication has stopped working.

Cabling problem Networked: Check that you connected the configuration computer to the multi panel using a hub and twisted-pair, category 5 cables. Direct Connection: Check that you used crossover, twisted-pair, Category 5 cables. (You can create a crossover cable with a length of Category 5 cable and an RJ-45 connector for each end. Wire one end normally; at the other end, connect 1 to pin 3 and 2 to pin 6.)

Troubleshooting MPI or PROFIBUS communication is not working

Communication settings between STEP 7 and the multi panel are different. Possibly a hardware configuration download from the configuration computer changed an MPI setting on the multi panel to PROFIBUS.

Configure the configuration computer and the multi panel to use the same communication setting: • On the configuration computer, set the

PG/PC Interface Parameter assignment to either the MPI or PROFIBUS selection for your CP card.

• On the multi panel, use the Transfer utility

from the Control Panel to set the Transfer Settings for Channel 2 to MPI. Set the S7-Transfer Settings for the multi panel to either MPI or PROFIBUS. The S7-Transfer Settings are accessible through the Advanced button on the Transfer Settings dialog.

The controller doesn't really do anything after installing the WinAC MP runtime files and a ProTool project.

The controller contains no control program.

Use STEP 7 to develop and download a control program. Review the topic “Developing and Downloading a STEP 7 Program for WinAC MP” (p. 23).

The WinAC MP controller is not communicating with the PROFIBUS-DP device network.

Wrong network configuration.

Review the topic “Configuring the SIMATIC PC Station and the PROFIBUS-DP Network” (p. 25) and correct any errors.
